Behind the door, a man frowning relaxed the muscles of his face and slowly lifted up the corners of his lips to form the type of smile that will do a good job of sending chills down your spine.

A red-haired youth looked around as soon as he got down from the little car his father handed over to him after using it for over a decade but the car was maintained well that it was hard tell except for the model which was produced eleven years ago.
He felt the presence of a stranger and he was scared but this was his home and if he stayed away, his family could get hurt. Now, he found himself almost confirming that Anna was not the good girl she pretends she is.
He pulled out his cell phone from his pocket and tried sending a message to his father that everyone should stay at home and not open the door of his room.
A black van parked in front of his car and a white tinted sport car stopped behind him. He was confused, it seems two set of people came for him because he could not imagine two cars coming to take only him away when he was very weak and powerless.
The door of the white sport car opened and a young man he recognized immediately as the guard who always walked with Jace in school stepped out of it in a black suit. "Mr. Coleman?" the young man asked with a slight smile as he glanced at the black van which reversed immediately and speed off.
"Yes," the red-haired replied exhaling in relief. However, his relief was short lived when he suddenly dropped to his knees due to the sudden sharp pain he felt in his temple.
He raised a shaky hand to touch the source of the pain looked down at his hand with his blurry vision to see his once neat hands stained red with his own blood. The boy did not last one more seconds on his knees as he fell with his face to floor.
Scott looked around before walking to the boy and tried to help the boy but he knew that there was no way he was going to be able to save the boy from the bullet he got in his temple.
It was a pity yet another young bright life has been taken due to the greed and wickedness of mankind. This was all a confirmation that the boy really saw the culprit and he was killed to hide the truth.
He was busy helping Jace with some paper works when Jace's got a message from one of their friends in high school telling him that they know someone who witnessed the incident that happened over a year ago.
Jace did not believe because he said there was nobody around when that happened but he suggested that they try to listen to what the boy had to say and when Jace agreed – which took him two hours to make the decision – he drove fast to the boys home but he was not early enough to safe the boy's life.
He called the police. He felt really bad looking at the pool of blood at his feet. If only he came a few minutes earlier, he might have saved the boy's life and know who the culprit is.
The sniper who ended the life of the now dead high schooler was a professional, hitting his target at the most fatal spot and ending the boy's life before anyone could notice anything was wrong.
He was happy that Jace did not come with him or he will have gotten punished for endangering his boss' life.
He returned home as soon as the police arrived. After giving them his statement and mentioning who he was in the Hart family, he was allowed to go without delay.
The police will begin a serious investigation but no matter how serious the investigation will be, they may never find who the culprit is.
The culprit is long gone and it will take more than the resource the Hart family had to offer to take down such a person. There was someone else, someone very powerful that he could swear over and over that he was not human who could help them.
He took the route to the Hart family home where Jace stayed in with his father but parked on the side of the road.
He shook his head. If he tells Jace the name of the person he had in mind, Jace will definitely hate him and since he was not willing to let that happen, he wanted to do it alone. He wanted to make the decision on his own. He lived to ensure Jace's safety and if he had to go against Jace to make that happen then he was willing to do that even offering his life.
It took a while for him to motivate himself about the decision he was about to make. He took his time to think about what the positive outcome of his decision will and locked out all the negative decisions. He pressed the start button and made a U-turn to a different direction.

Debby, Anna, Rose, Wayne, and Eric all sat quietly in the room they eat their lunch. They were all quiet. This room they all sat in was the same room the red-haired boy sat and he told them all he had to say only yesterday. They came to school to the news that the boy was dead. He got shot to death right in front of his house.
Debby felt her breakfast try to make its way up her throat back to her mouth as she thought of how Claire's copse was displayed right in their school.
The restroom where she was left in was now called a haunted restroom and has been closed up by the school.
A few students say they hear her cry from the restroom when they are going back home. They also say she leaves the restroom to study with students reading in the school at night.
It was bad enough that a student died that way in the school and yet another student has died. All were connected to Anna.
She looked at Anna and she could not control the bile rising up her throat and she excused herself immediately to the restroom to dump the delicious breakfast she ate down the toilet bowl.
